Gary Gygax fails Saving Throw vs Death

image

Sad news from the Troll Lord Games forums. It's being reported that Gary Gygax, the creator of Dungeons and Dragons, has passed away at the age of 69:

It is almost too much to get my mind about. But I've just had news that our dear Dungeon Master has passed away. Ernie called this morning, he thought we should let the fans know. He's just sent an email out.

Gary was in his home when he gathered himself up to cross the great divide.

He was a very dear friend of mine. And I will miss him so.

God Speed My Friend.

I want to thank Gary Gygax for being part of my childhood. I remember going to the hobby store one day and finding out that they had sold the last model Panzer. Having nothing better to spend my saved money on, I picked up a blue box with a dragon on the cover and purchased my first Dungeons and Dragons product. Twenty-seven years of table-top memories later and I still play and love rolling the polyhedral dice.

Thank you, Gary. You will be missed.
